New reuse shop opens at Newquay recycling centre

Friday, 16 October 2026 16:28

A new shop selling second-hand goods has opened at Newquay's Household Waste Recycling Centre, giving unwanted items a second life and offering shoppers the chance to pick up a bargain.

The shop, located at the recycling centre on Trevenson Road, is the tenth to be opened by Kernow Reuse.

It offers a range of pre-loved items which can be reused rather than thrown away, helping to reduce waste and encourage more sustainable shopping.

Announcing the opening, Kernow Reuse said: "We’re excited to announce that our brand-new reuse shop is now open at Newquay Household Waste Recycling Centre!"

The organisation is encouraging people to visit and see what bargains they can find.

"Pop in and see what treasures you can find! From pre-loved bargains to hidden gems, you never know what you might discover.

"By shopping with us, you’re helping to give items a second life and reduce waste."

The opening marks a milestone for the organisation, which now operates ten reuse shops.

The shop is open seven days a week, from 9am until 4pm.

Visitors are reminded to book a slot before travelling to the recycling centre with parking included whilst they visit the shop.

Kernow Reuse added: "Thank you for supporting reuse and helping us make a difference. Here’s to shop number 10!"
